Similar to the fsync issue fixed a while ago in commit

data integrity for filesystems that modify the inode in the data I/O

has a write_inode method that does nothing but waiting for data, while

ioat3: interrupt coalescing

of the interrupt and the running of the cleanup routine.  The delay is
scaled by the descriptor backlog and then written to the INTRDELAY
register which specifies the number of microseconds to hold off
interrupt delivery after an interrupt event occurs.  According to

Prioritize synchronous signals over 'normal' signals

This makes sure that we pick the synchronous signals caused by a
processor fault over any pending regular asynchronous signals sent to
use by [t]kill().

This is not strictly required semantics, but it makes it _much_ easier
for programs like Wine that expect to find the fault information in the
signal stack.

Without this, if a non-synchronous signal gets picked first, the delayed
asynchronous signal will have its signal context pointing to the new
signal invocation, rather than the instruction that caused the SIGSEGV
or SIGBUS in the first place.

This is not all that pretty, and we're discussing making the synchronous
signals more explicit rather than have these kinds of implicit
preferences of SIGSEGV and friends.  See for example

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15395

for some of the discussion.  But in the meantime this is a simple and
fairly straightforward work-around, and the whole

if (x & Y)
x &= Y;

movq    %rdx, %rax
andl    $Y, %eax
cmovne  %rax, %rdx

so it is at least a simple solution to a subtle issue.
